Rewards & burns
Cashback, referral earnings, holder rewards from Torch launches, and how burns happen.
Torch has three kinds of rewards: cashback on your own trades, referral earnings on the trades of people you invited, and holder rewards from Torch launchpad tokens you hold.
How the trading fee is shared
The 1% trading fee is split into two equal halves. Each reward takes its percentage of its own half, so they always add up exactly to the fee.
┌── half A ──┬── your cashback = your tier %
1% trading fee ──┤ └── buyback & burn = the rest
└── half B ──┬── referral = your referrer's tier %
└── Torch = the restYour referrer's earnings come out of Torch's half, not out of your cashback.
Cashback tiers (your own trading volume, last 30 days)
| Tier | 30-day volume | Share of half A | Back on every trade |
|---|---|---|---|
| Average | $0 – $250k | 20% | 0.10% |
| Mid | $250k – $1M | 30% | 0.15% |
| Power | $1M+ | 40% | 0.20% |
Referral tiers (total volume of everyone you referred)
| Tier | Referred volume | Share of half B |
|---|---|---|
| Silver | from $0 | 20% |
| Gold | $1M | 25% |
| Platinum | $5M | 30% |
| Diamond | by invitation | 50% |

Claiming cashback and referral rewards
- Rewards build up per chain, in that chain's gas token (ETH, SOL, BNB…).
- You can claim a chain once it reaches $5. The payout goes to your Torch wallet on that chain.
- Claim on the Rewards page in the Terminal, or with
/cashbackand/referralin the bot. - $TORCH trades don't earn cashback or referral (that fee goes to $TORCH's burn and treasury).
Holder rewards (Torch launchpad tokens)
When a token's creator chose to send part of its buy tax to holders, everyone holding that token earns a share:
- Based on how much you hold and for how long. Buying right before a payout and selling right after earns very little.
- No minimum holding, and rewards never expire.
- Claim all your holder rewards at once, across every token and every one of your Torch wallets, from your profile or the Rewards page in the Terminal.
- Claiming needs your password, because it's a transaction from your wallet. The confirmation shows Torch holder rewards as the contract you're interacting with.
Burns
What gets burned is always a token, sent to a dead address where no one can ever move it again.
| Source | What's burned |
|---|---|
| The burn share of the 1% trading fee | The token you traded, bought back with that share |
| Torch launch tax set to Burn | That launch's own token, automatically |
| $TORCH's own tax and trading fee | $TORCH (see $TORCH) |
| Creator fees left unclaimed for 60 days | $TORCH, bought back and burned |
Burns run automatically as balances build up, not on a fixed schedule. Every burn is a public on-chain transaction, and $TORCH burns are announced in the Torch community chat.
"Every trade burns"
That's the short version. Precisely: half of every 1% trading fee, after your cashback, goes to buyback-and-burn.
